Insolvency Practitioners will welcome the UK Jurisdiction Taskforce’s (UKJT) Legal Statement on Digital Assets and English Insolvency Law, published on 17 April 2024.
ChatGPT was launched less than 18 months ago. This relatively brief period feels like a lifetime, considering the seismic changes to date which are likely only the start.
